| stay with woodies for now. they are capable of mild 3D despite the naysayers. They're cheaper then CF's to replace ($20 a set vs. $60+ a set).
once you get more fluent with your flying, stepping upto the CF blades will firm up the response and make it more crisp. You'll be able to be more aggressive without bending the blades much at all.
I use Aerotek 600mm woods or I occassionally pick-up 600mm woods that people sell off on the forum here.
as for the ball links, if they're not cracked, you might be able to reform them with some pliers by just giving them a little squeeze around the outside. when you pop it onto the ball, just make sure it moves freely, but doesn't have a sloppy fit and that with light pressure from your finger, that it won't pop off.
also, check your see-saw arms since they are prone to snapping. Also just make sure your tail belt is ok and didn't get damaged.
what lead to the boom strike? you loose orientation and cut the collective?
